Just returned from Carnival Venezia 12 day cruise out of NYC. This was my second cruise, previous was on R.C Symphony of the Seas (pre-covid)

There was a definite different vibe between the two trips, I'm not sure if R.C would feel this way now post covid but man did Carnival ever feel like EVERYTHING they do is about trying to extract money out of the people on the boat ... like some sort of combo casino / timeshare sales pitch vibe at times. This cruise also had more people on scooters / assisted mobility devices than I've ever seen in one location before (which was ironic because one of the comics joked that R.C was for "seniors").

The ship is obviously MUCH smaller but it's size

Hey folks,

Was wondering if anyone had a great bag suggestion that has excellent ventilation - nothing worse than when I forget my bag in the back of my truck and when I open it there is condensation all over everything because it can't breathe.

Ventilation is my #1 priority, then durability, then any other features like compartments etc.

Hey Folks,

I'm managing ALTA in Norway and finding that my scouts burn through my scouting budget like a fat kid eats skittles. I've given them enough scouting budget to cover a year of Northern Europe, I've cleared all my whitelists, and I've got some recruitment focuses setup the way IronOwl suggests (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cfiuDXLNbhs)

I find though that my scouts somehow all of a sudden get interested in players from the other side of the globe and go trotting over there to look at them and just burning cash.

What options do I need to be looking at to ensure this doesn't happen, I just want them to stay in N. Europe for now. I'd also ideally like them to NOT spend pas

Honestly disappointed.

  • Book binding / construction is nice however the size of the book makes it odd in the bookshelf.
  • Art looks as if it was done by an AI generator.
  • Writing is at a kindergarten reading level.
  • Story is a very basic, no deep thinking or humour here.

Less than a 5 minute flip through "short story"

Overall I wouldn't say I really got 27$ CAD worth of value. I purchased purely on the hype of it being a Watterson product (no I wasn't expecting C&H) and honestly kind of regretting buying it on that basis.

!Story is basically a short story about how humans used to have a lot of things they didn't understand, and then they discovered science and made great advancements

Started in late April and powered through them all. Gotta say on book 4 I was very much against the switching of audio narrator however on LB I kind of missed it.

Can't wait for the next book, please be soon.

Now I need to find my next audiobook obsession.

After you get your GDPR file from Reddit (takes a cpl of weeks) via [ https://www.reddit.com/settings/data-request ] I would highly suggest visiting the rust version of shreddit [ https://github.com/andrewbanchich/shreddit ] and pointing it at your GDPR data to fully delete it from Reddits servers. Normal deletes only delete the last 1000 entries, your post and comment history will look empty but if you do a Google search [ site:reddit.com <your username> ] you'll find old entries that weren't covered by that (they will appear in your GDPR data).

In order to use shreddit you'll need to create a personal reddit api key (really easy instructions are on the GitHub) and it works really well
